Mu Qingwan looked down calmly and saw that the envoys below were all paying attention to them intentionally or unintentionally, especially the envoy from Western Chu.

Just now, Xia Houlie openly embraced Yun Luo into the hall, and she, the newly married queen, was left behind like an abandoned wife. They must have seen it, because her father, the queen, and her mother were already full of guilt for her because they were unable to stop the marriage.

, if she knew that she received such a cold reception in Beiyan, she would surely be even more worried.

Thinking like this, she subconsciously stopped struggling and allowed Xia Houxie to hold her affectionately. If this could make her father, the Queen and her mother feel more at ease, then why not do it?

Seeing how intimate they were, Yun Luo, who was sitting on the other side, stared at Mu Qingwan with eyes that were burning like fire.

Mu Qingwan retracted her hand weakly. In the scene just now, from Yunluo's point of view, it seemed that she, Mu Qingwan, had deliberately rubbed herself against Xia Houlie. This man did these intimate actions on purpose, most likely because he wanted her to

She became a thorn in Yunluo's side.

Seeing that she stopped moving, Xia Houlie smiled with satisfaction, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then blocked her mouth. The mellow wine flowed along his thin lips into her mouth, and it was ice cold.

The cold liquid made her cough uncomfortably. He leaned over and kissed her lips, patting her back gently with his big hands.

If she hadn't witnessed his cruelty last night, his gentleness today would have even confused her.

Sensing Yun Luo's sharp gaze as sharp as a needle, she knew that the tension between the two of them was now high. I was afraid that this was Xia Houlie's purpose, to push her to the forefront and let her and Yun Luo fight each other in order to achieve his goals.

Let’s suppress the Yun family’s purpose.

Feeling annoyed, she struggled to sit up. Unexpectedly, her foot slipped on the long silk skirt. Her heart jumped suddenly. Her hands subconsciously wrapped around his neck. Suddenly, there was no trace of their bodies.

Through the gap, the strange manly scent coming from him made Mu Qingwan blush suddenly.

"Are you so eager to throw yourself into my arms? It doesn't matter, I will give you a chance to show off tonight."

Act like a big-headed idiot!

Mu Qingwan gave him a stern look, struggled away, but was hugged tighter by him. She couldn't struggle, so she opened her mouth and bit him in anger.

He groaned, gritted his teeth and said, "If you don't want me to kill you in public, then be more honest with me!"

His slightly rapid breathing made Mu Qingwan stunned, and she subconsciously looked at the place where she had just bitten, but it happened to be a protrusion on his chest, and her face turned red.

Staring at the man above her who was resting, she growled in shame: "Let me go!"

Xia Houlie said in a leisurely manner: "The queen seems to be asking for help?"

She closed her eyes and opened them again. Her whole body was as calm as a pool of calm stagnant water, "Your Majesty, what on earth do you have to do before you are willing to return the jade pendant?"

He raised his eyebrows, played with the wine glass in his hand and said calmly: "I think the envoys of Xichu will be very happy to see you enjoying yourself in my arms. You don't want them to know that you are being ignored by me, right?"

"you……"

His hint made her grit her teeth in anger, but when she saw the jade pendant in his hand and thought about the envoy of Xichu watching them below, no matter how much anger she had, she could only quietly suppress it and snatched the jade pendant from his hand.

She took a long sip from the wine glass, then put her arms around his neck, pulled his head down, and kissed him tenderly.
